Did you loose any of these?

[Desert Digger]

Every year the wife and I make the weekend trips to the Salt River
when they shut the water off in October. The Salt River is home to
thousands of tubers during the summer months. Most items are lost
when the tubers hang their hands over the sides of the tubes and their
fingers shrink and rings fall off. The rest of the goodies are lost when
the tubers hit the rapids and their coolers dump their contents into the
river, never to be seen again until the water is turned off. I have included
some pictures of the finds and some of the interesting scenery. The horses
are wild stalions that hang around the river.

Lots of very expensive transponder keys in the lot. If that was their only key.....time for a tow.
